This a chance to welcome the new additions to our lives as well as saying goodbye to those we lost in 2016. This pertains to people and animals as well as old cars ...

Have a little fun and be creative if you want.  Here's mine:                        

• John Glenn. Lost. He was a bigger than life for a kid like me growing up in the 60s.
• Red Stangle. Lost. Served in WW2, volunteer fireman as long as he could and was at the door step of our café every morning to sit first at the 'liars' table.
• Gizmo. Lost our ten year rescue cat. Loving and was no burden.
• My old hip. You served me well for 60+ years.
• Gained a loving rescue beagle, Zeke.
• Denby. Lost rescue kitten after a long fight.
